Only a 6 minute video and he managed to fit in:

  • Chavez and Maduro betraying the revolution and not building socialism,
  • Maduro outlawing “the actual communists”,
  • Venezuela supposedly never took any serious steps to diversify its economy from oil,
  • Russian and Chinese imperialism,
  • Some big bourgeoisie are “puppets of China and Russia”,
  • Russian imperialism in Ukraine,
  • China debt-trapping Venezuela.

His conclusion: “we should not advocate for return of Maduro to power”.

He also managed to confuse the separate events of the US striking the fishing boats and the US pirating the oil tankers arriving at “these boats were supposedly transporting drugs while many were in reality obviously oil tankers going to Cuba” as if he didn’t pay any attention before and did some last-minute research before making the video.

    No worries, Turkiye is definitely one of the more subtler cases.

    Btw, you seem to be a Turkish comrade. How seriously is the whole Turkiye vs Turkey taken? I didn’t mean to be inconsiderate, I just rolled with the name the article was using.

      It’s not problem at all. I support the change since Turkiye is more correct name for the country.
